Conspiracy 365 by Gabrielle Lord
This is a series of twelve books that I am reading. I love these books becuase they are filled with action, worry, and suspence. Callum Ormond is my favorite character. He is a hunted fugitive and is now on the run. Callum is only 15 years old and he has to survive 365 days. I think that people who like action book would like this. Ages 10 to 15 would probly like it.

I love this book because it is about a bunch of friends putting something together. My favorite character is Kate because she never gives up and you can tell she is kindhearted and determined. She didn't stop trying to earn money for her dad's b-day present. This is a great book for kids that are thinking about having a lemonade stand.

A World Away is about a 16-year old named Eliza, who has been Amish all her life. She has never tried on a pair of jeans, never made a phone call, or watched TV. She is asked for a nanny job for two kids, and excited accepts. She learns the good, bad, and the ugly of learning of love, life, and lessons of the non-Amish world. She learns that most of the time, the life your blessed with is the life your meant to belong to, even if it doesn't seem that way. This was a phenomenal book!

I liked this book because it made you think about what is going to happen next. My favorite character is Meg. I like Meg because you can tell she is adventerous and likes taking risks. I think kids from 4th grade to 7th grade would like this adventerous tale.

I liked how the author made the setting feel like the future and it could happen. I felt like every chapter Lena was changing and starting to realize love is good and it is something to celebrate. I liked how the ending was put together. I feel like this was a fast paced book that left me wanting more at the end. I thought it was a great book.

I felt that Beautiful Creatures had a great story line. I liked that they placed it in the real world. It made it feel like it could happen. I liked how they made the connection with Lena and Ethan. It made it feel magical. All around it was a great book that most people would like to read.

It's very captivating with major romance and mystery. A simpleton guy from a small town finds out that this new summer time city isn't all its cracked up to be. There are real vampires and some aren't as friendly as they seem. It is truly a must read for the summer.

The book I'm doing my review on is "Matilda." I picked Matilda because it's one of my favorite books. I also enjoyed the movie. Matilda is about a little girl growing up on her own in a family she doesn't belong. She discovers that she has magical powers. In the end she was adopted by her teacher which she loved, and they lived happily ever after.

1812: A War That Forged a Nation by Walter R. Borneman
Not knowing much about the war of 1812, or having an intense desire to put forth the extra participation in the history of our country, this non-fiction is written with the intention of getting the attention of the younger generation.
Younger generations on occasion associate history with school, and in the beginning of the summer that is the last thing anyone wants to think about. This story of the war, the living conditions, and the tensions of the years preceding 1812 until the years dating after the war, shows relations to the present. The relations are not in the difficulties, but more so in the language and thoughts of America's founders.
These similarities cause the formation of fantastic relationships. These relationships are between the reader and the historical figures, in this historical review. This author is successful his attempt to connect the present and the past.
This written piece is helpful in preparing for future history based classes, as well as impressing friends and colleagues with esteemed knowledge of a historical event. Over all, this piece is a needed read, if not for the historical knowledge, then for the extreme vocabulary.

This adventure with Katie Kazoo is as wild as always. Her teacher Mrs. Derkman moves in next door. What a surprise. Once again the magic wind comes and turns her into Pepper. Pepper (Katie) does some crazy stuff and then when she turns back into herself she fixes everything. Pepper is my favorite character.

Francine and Muffy have a bet that Francine can't be nice for a whole week. Muffy bets her Princess Peach watch. Arthur and his friends push Francine to the limit but she holds back her temper. My favorite character is Muffy. Find out what happens to Francine as she tries to be nice for a whole week.

This book is amazing! It's about 2 rabbits named Hazel and Fiver who try to leave their home warren. It really makes you think about how rabbits live in the wild and how similar and at the same time how different rabbits are to humans.

I loved Fairest because it was about things like love and hatred and there were a lot of details which helped me get an image of the story in my head, making the story better. My favorite character was Ijory because he was nice to everyone. I think someone who enjoyed magical things, like fairies, would like it.

A girl named Amu Hinamori wants to be her true self. She ends up with 3 character guardians who help her. People that work for Easter steal her eggs and guardians! She has to protect them and save the characters.

The movie I'm doing this review on is "Holes." I decided to do a review on this movie because it's one of my favorites. This movie is mainly about Stanley Yelnats gets sent away to a correctional camp for stealing shoes, that he was wrongly accused for. There family believes in this 100 year old curse that his great great grandfather put on them. In the end he finds a treasure chest that was meant for him all along, but throughout the whole movie they would look back into the past and tell the story of "kissing Kate Barlow." Which was one of my favorite characters, my other favorite character was Theodore aka "Arm pit."
